Clinical trials are an important way to improve treatment for people with cancer. While most are continuing during the COVID-19 pandemic, the period of time that clinical trials are available and recruiting may change quickly. If you would like to get involved in a clinical trial, speak to your treatment team or the health service where the clinical trial is being undertaken, to confirm it is open and appropriate for you. For cancer information and support, call Cancer Council's experienced cancer nurses on 13 11 20 Monday to Friday from 9am-5pm.

Summary

Eligible participants will be randomly allocated to either the Experimental Arm or Active Comparator Arm. In the Experimental Arm, participants will receive pembrolizumab (400mg) via intravenous infusion (IV) on Day 1 of each 6-week cycle for up to 18 cycles (approximately 2 years). In the Active Comparator Arm, participants will receive a combination of paclitaxel (175mg/m^2) on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle and carboplatin (AUC 5 or 6) on Day 1 of each 3-week cycle for 6 cycles (up to approximately 4 months). Participants who experience a severe hypersensitivity reaction to paclitaxel or an adverse event (AE) requiring discontinuation of paclitaxel may receive docetaxel (75mg/m^2) in place of paclitaxel on Day 1 Q3W after Sponsor consultation. Participants who experience a severe hypersensitivity reaction to carboplatin or an AE requiring discontinuation of carboplatin may receive cisplatin (75mg/m^2) in place of carboplatin on Day 1 Q3W after Sponsor consultation.
